The
advantages of Licensing manufacturing (or development) rights are manifold,
economies of scale being one issue and benefiting from existing cutting edge
technology, the most obvious.
We
aim to forge international links with marine suppliers and agencies the
world over. During this phase of growth preferential terms are offered to
manufacturers looking to develop products of the future. So please get in
touch to explore the possibilities for collaboration and manufacturing.
We
protect the rights of our commercial associates vigorously. We are opposed
to counterfeit trading which harms the development of new products. Please
let us know (in confidence) if you suspect any such illegal activity.
For
all Licensing of trademarks, designs and manufacturing, please contact
